🧠 Opinion: Calm $BTC = Lower Crash Risk in Q1?

Bitcoin didn’t end the year with a euphoric blow-off top—and that might actually be bullish for stability.

Anthony Pompliano says the absence of a late-year frenzy reduces the odds of a sharp Q1 crash, especially with BTC volatility now heavily compressed. In his view, the chances of a 70–80% drawdown are extremely low under current conditions.

Context matters 👇

BTC is up ~100% in 2 years and ~300% in 3 years

Less volatility = less upside excitement, but more downside protection

Current price: $87,436, down 7.39% YTD

Not everyone agrees long term:

Peter Brandt sees a possible $60K in Q3 2026

Fidelity’s Jurrien Timmer points to $65K sometime in 2026

No blow-off. No panic. Just compression.

Is this the calm before continuation—or a slow grind lower? 👇
